The Mighty Steyn!… UPDATED
~ UPDATE: Denyse O’leary Writes: “Just a note to say that I have just completed the transcript of Steyn’s testimony, so your readers will now have pretty much everything except the ums and the ahs.” Additionally, Deborah Gyapong lets us know “I just got a transcript for the whole day to augment the great work Denyse has done in getting us material at lightning speed. There’s also a media release from Lisa MacLeod.” ~

Via the ever-usefl Denyse O’leary, “here’s the URL for my transcript of Mark Steyn’s address to the Ontario human rights commission legislative committee hearing:”

~ SOME THINGS and people just go right ahead and make fun of themselves. So the omnipotentiaries of the University Of Calgary apparently hold the position that “The Canadian Charter Of Rights and Freedoms (the Charter) does not apply to universities.” UofC alum Ezra Levant puts it simply & best: “The University of Calgary is a disgrace”.. and comments ensued. SoCon weighs in here.
While no doubt the above is clueless legalese for “We Don’t Take Kindly To Any Of You Pro-Life Bigots ‘Round Here”, taken logically and morally and legally, it is to descend into utter absurdity.

~ TEH BINKS sends a letter to ImmiMin Jason Kenney, on the topic of Aqsa Parvez. Why not join in? [ kennej@parl.gc.ca ] …. (canuckjihad)

~ AS A HISTORY GEEK, I loved the movie ’300′– not least for having read the whole story in Herodotus. Those few (and theor allies) stood against the largest army ever, up to that time.
Our very own brave ’300′ stand around us, and we don’t rightly see them, because they don’t wear wear codpieces (OK, we hear mark Steyn wears one, but only for comfort) or any of the other outward accoutrements of King Leonidas and his elite Spartans.
Who are our stalwarts? Geert Wilders; Mark Steyn; Ayaan Hirsi Ali; Benedict XVI; Pam Geller; Ezra Levant; Kathy Shaidle; Robert Spencer; Melanie Phillips; Caroline Glick; Jason Kenney; Paul Schneidereit; Kate McMillan, Keith Martin; Deborah Gyapong; and the list goes on and on.

~ THE “O” IS PREZ for the next 4 years: let’s pray we can avoid global catastrophe and/ or war in that time. Obama is a dangerous combination of naive ideologue, and vicious political operative. If it doesn’t fit in his world-view, it doesn’t matter. Dubya, as a new President, was also clueless, but not because he already had it all figured out.
American policy regarding China has been a hit-and-miss botch. During the Chinese Civil War (as paid for by the USSR), Americans made crucial mistakes that eventually led to Communist victory.
